Customer Reviews:

Simple but Profound - A Must Read for Parents and Coaches

By Robin Roman Wright - December 4, 2010

I am a Career and AD/HD Coach and a parent of a teen and college graduate. I have helped many teens and young adults - from 15 - 29 - identify their transferable skills and prepare a short-list of career options using this book. I find that my teen clients easily grasp the straight-forward approach and benefit from completing the Discovery Exercises. By identifying real life examples where a teen solved a problem, met a challenge or reached a goal, a student learns about his/her talents and sees how those talents could be valuable to a future employer. More importantly, they obtain advice about how to create a fulfilling life. This particular exercise helps students who might not be scholastically inclined just as much as it helps those who are at the top of their class. With my own children, the principles and "game plan" outlined in the book have helped me enlighten, guide and encourage my children. I highly recommend the book to parents, AD/HD and Career Coaches and teens... read more

Not just for teens!

By K. Mckenzie - November 21, 2010

I am really enjoying the book, I'm going through it myself
before I start referring the young adults I work with to it. I love that you point out
that research and planning is what's important, not necessarily going
to college. I realized that I have been ripping myself off because I
failed to finish college, expecting less because that's what I had
been programmed to believe (don't go to college = don't earn good
money). Thank you.

Teenage Self Education.

By sdserf - October 24, 2012

Truthfully; I did not read this book - I bought it for my grandson. I did skim through it and my grandson said that he enjoyed the book. I bought the adult version of "What Color is Your Parachute" in 1996. I was about to retire from the Navy and start the next chapter in my life - the book was great. I believe that the teen version is probably even more useful. How many teens know what their apptitudes are and which career they are best suited for? I recommend that parents and grandparents purchase this book for their teenagers. It can provide guidance in a very uncertain period in their lives. SDSerf
